PHOTOS FROM KOREA 2008


“Sidewalks and crosswalks are needed for pedestrians to walk safely.” Yo-han, age 11

“There is a sidewalk, but cars block the way so it is dangerous. The sidewalk is blocked with cars. Cars must park at the parking lot and not the sidewalk. The sidewalk is for pedestrians.” Eun, age 11

“The car is parked where many children walk. It is a school zone and the city policemen need to check illegal parking.” Yo-han, age 11

“It is not safe because the car is blocking the way. Drivers should not park and stop the car illegally.” Woo-seok, age 11

“Because the game machine is blocking the sidewalk, children walk through the roadway. Cars are parked on the street and there is no way to walk.” Hyo-seung, age 11

“Cars are parked where many children walk to and from school. This car is parked on the sidewalk and so the only choice is to walk through the roadway.” Ha-eun, age 11

“This is a busy area with lots of cars and traffic congestion.” Soo-min, age 11

“Cars are parked at the sidewalk so there is no way to walk.” Eun-jee, age 11

“Objects of construction have fallen on the road. Moreover, there is no sidewalk for children to walk. The city office should make the way plain and remove objects on the road.” Gyu-won, age 11

“It is very inconvenient for the pedestrian. The policemen need to check for illegal parking and the city office should make the walkway clear.” Han-sung, age 11

“The stores are next to the path for pedestrians and cars. To improve the walking environment, barriers need to be built to separate sidewalk and roadway for cars.” Gyu-won, age 11
